- In the other hand, "Shattering the Skies Above" is the first song officially recorded and released by Trivium with then-drummer Nick Augusto.
- The Lyrics of Taking Dawn's "This is Madness" make references to the movie "300". (which is a loose reference to Kratos as he was a captain in the Spartan army)
- Kratos pose resembles his pose in the collection God of War Saga
